When a Routine Vaccine Causes Serious Harm

Whether the injury happened after a school-required vaccine or during a wellness visit, we review the vaccine administration, track the timeline, and document the vaccine related cause. If your child experienced an adverse reaction — or symptoms that didn’t resolve — this may be eligible for a federal claim. We’ve worked with young families affected by complications after the flu vaccine, polio inactivated virus, and rotavirus vaccine — among others. These claims are based on evidence, not assumptions, and we handle them from start to finish.

When a child is injured by a vaccine, it rarely looks the same from one family to the next. Some symptoms appear immediately. Others take weeks to be recognized. But in each case, the aftermath is serious — and the disruption to your child’s development, education, and daily life should never be ignored.

Neurological or Immune Conditions After Routine Vaccination

Some children develop neurological symptoms — seizures, developmental regression, or loss of motor skills — after early immunizations. We’ve seen this after vaccines like the HPV vaccine, haemophilus influenza type, and meningococcal vaccines. These injuries are often misdiagnosed early but may be linked to vaccination once full medical records and timelines are reviewed.

Severe Allergic Reactions and Life-Threatening Side Effects

Vaccines can cause severe allergic reactions in children, also known as anaphylaxis — especially when there's an undiagnosed sensitivity. Reactions often include breathing problems, high fevers, full-body rash, or hospital admission. We see these cases with varicella vaccines, shingles vaccine, and certain combination shots.

Injuries After Pneumococcal and Rotavirus Immunizations

Routine immunizations like pneumococcal conjugate vaccines, pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccines, and the rotavirus vaccine are typically given to infants and toddlers — but they’re also linked to serious complications in rare cases. These can include gut issues, high fever, excessive crying, or failure to thrive. These signs shouldn’t be brushed off. If they follow a recent vaccine, we investigate.

Claims Involving Manufacturer or Handling Errors

Some cases don’t involve the vaccine ingredients — they involve how the vaccine was stored, transported, or administered. These are still compensable under the program. If the issue came from a vaccine manufacturer, a faulty dose from a vaccine company, or a known supply chain failure, we build the case accordingly. These claims are also reported to disease control for safety review. We’ll review your child’s symptoms and medical records to see if the injury qualifies for compensation.
